Design issues in a mandatory greenhouse gas emissions registry for the United States
On March 10, 2009, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a new rule, Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases. When final, the rule would compel most large sources of greenhouse gases (GHGs) to report their emissions to EPA as well as fossil fuel suppliers and vehicle engine manufacturers to report their fuel sales and engine emissions rates, respectively. We suggest a number of ...
متن کاملUnderstanding Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Unconventional Natural Gas Production
Natural gas comprises almost one-fourth of all energy used in the U.S. New technologies, sometimes referred to as “unconventional” have enabled the production of more natural gas and have expanded domestic energy reserves. Natural gas is generally recognized as a clean-burning fuel source, producing less greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions per quantity of energy consumed than either coal or oil. How...
متن کاملCarbon accounting rules and guidelines for the United States forest sector.
The United States Climate Change Initiative includes improvements to the U.S. Department of Energy's Voluntary Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. The program includes specific accounting rules and guidelines for reporting and registering forestry activities that reduce atmospheric CO2 by increasing carbon sequestration or reducing emissions. In the forestry sector, there is potential for the eco...
متن کاملA Deductive Approach to the Relationship between Climate Change and Aquaculture Sector
This paper addresses the relationship between climate change and aquaculture sector through comparing the contribution of developed and developing countries in gas emission (CO2) and aquaculture production. As long as aquaculture industry is vital source of food and revenue for most developing countries, their livelihood presumably would be affected negatively by global warming. Examining data ...
متن کاملAnalysis and Modeling of Yield, CO2 Emissions, and Energy for Basil Production in Iran using Artificial Neural Networks
The present study attempts to investigate the potential relationship between input energies, performance production of greenhouse basil, and greenhouse gases emitted from this product. The data were collected from 24 greenhouses using a questionnaire and verbal interaction with farmers. Results of the study showed that the total input energy and total output energy for basil production were 119...
